The Car – Watch for it Soon

Jan 31, 2010

It’s a small secret that I’m working on a secret project. It’s a car! A few months ago, I was asked to design a car for Toyota Scion. I’m glad to do this project amidst the bad news of the venerable car company major recall which is throwing the car world into a whirlpool. That’s a seat design pictured above. I won’t tell you much about the car just yet, but the design is coming around. That’s Len, a dude who can pimp your ride.

There’s a view of the shop. I visited them on Friday in Orange County. The car is still two months off, and not anywhere near what it’ll end up looking like just yet. It’s neat that an idea from a napkin can actually turn into a serious automobile.

That’s Len near his tool area and explaining something with his hands.

That’s a 1961 Honda. It’s not stock at all. See the gas tank and the seat? It’s all custom by Len. He can do cycles too. I don’t ride, but if I did, I’d want one of these.
